Resumo de Let Me Die With My People

       Africa as a continent is a unique Race with a unique problem that demands for a unique and objective leadership that can uniquely solve it.
It has been as a result of lack of this objective leadership that Africa in spite of her search for survival has been drifting down the drain in political turbulence and other socio-economic problems.
      Yes, Africa before we knew it, we had already fallen supine on the bare ground like a phlegmatic woman that unwillingly submits to mating with her two legs stretched in a triangular fashion in defeat.
      Some hundreds of years ago, Africa was the mirror of the world. And if she had been left alone without the undesirable advent of the hungry foreign sojouners and again the internal spates and invasions caused by these people, she would still have been on top with her ancient civilization that startled the ancient world.
By now that set of discovery then would have been transformed into a brigand and wonderful scientific and technological outfit.
      Whatever poses or becomes a source of concern to someone, leads him to any type of radical decision and may not even count it as a burden to him.
      As traced in this book, the abysmal drawback from the global trends of development both to his locality in particular and his continent in general, the undue influence of Racial discriminations which metamorphosed into a condemnable aparthaid, the pogroms, the unabeted killing of preciuos souls of his land, which the pathetic cries of many women who, the untimely death of their husbands crowned with widowhood; injected a strong determination to the New-Voice of the book, to set up fight and struggles for liberation for his people.
     The New-Voice, {the hero of the book} though had the following as the moving force behind his unusual determination to stage for liberation fight:
                      i. the colonial masters assault to the citizen of the land
                     ii. the painful dehumanisation of the historic slave trade
                    iii. the annexation of their natural resouces
                    iv. the living as strangers in Papa`s own land etc. but he was disturbed greatly by one central problem which left him armless, and that was the gross lack of quality leadership in his land; and unpatriotic betrayal of the land by the few made-warrant-chiefs.
     The consequences of his liberation struggles, according to the book, was his over two decades incaceration, where he suffered beyond measure. But in all maintained to remain the exquisite of the Black Race. A stanza from one of his sorrowful cries during those years of dark moments was:

                                 What have I done, what was my guilt
                                          To languish still in jail?
                                       Why should I be left to suffer
                                    In this endless years of woes? Oh,
                                      Let the nature come and reduce
                                                 My weight now!
        In the heat of this suffering, he strongly insisted on his calling to his folkmen:i. the need for a good leadership, ii. the need to make truth more precious than their blood iii. the benfit in bending down to develop local technology through the abundant human talents that are wasting away.
      Inconclusion {according to the book} when at last he triumphantly came out from jail, he however, warned that the glorious dawn his continent was looking for when they will be made a technological giants of the modern world, will ever remain a mere wishful thinking and a dashed hope if a good leadership, love for Papa`s land, were not enthroned.
